[edit] Career

White joined Mansfield Town after being released by Nottingham Forest at the age of 16,[1] and made his debut in September 2002 against Cheltenham, when he came off the bench to replace the injured Kevin Pilkington.[2][3] He made only 13 appearances between his debut and the end of the 2005–06 season,[4] as he was usually understudy to Pilkington and later Kevin Pressman,[1][5] but was offered a new contract in April 2006,[5] and began the 2006–07 season in goal, going on to make 33 appearances that season.[6] By the end of the 2007–08 season, White had made over 50 appearances for Mansfield.[4]
